FAQs
What does 'two-tone woven herringbone' mean?
It refers to the classic V-shaped weaving pattern (herringbone) created using two different colours of yarn in the weave, giving the throw depth and texture.
Is this throw heavy or lightweight?
This throw is designed to be lightweight yet provide a cosy feel, making it suitable for layering or use in various temperatures without being overly cumbersome.
How large is the throw?
While specific dimensions are not provided here, throws of this type are generally sized to be versatile, suitable for draping over furniture or using as a personal blanket.
Can I use this throw outdoors?
Yes, it can be used as a picnic blanket. However, for longevity and to maintain its softness and colour, it's best to keep it clean and dry when used outdoors, and wash it afterwards.
What makes it 'environmentally friendly'?
It is made from 100% recycled cotton fibres, which diverts textile waste from landfills and reduces the need for virgin cotton production, saving water and energy.
Will the colour flecks wash out?
The colour flecks are inherent to the recycled fibres used in the manufacturing process and are woven into the fabric. They should not wash out.
Does the black colour fade easily?
To preserve the colour, it is recommended to wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours and avoid direct sunlight for prolonged periods when drying.
Troubleshooting
Throw appears faded or texture has changed after washing.
Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and a mild detergent. Avoid high heat when drying; air drying or tumble drying on low is recommended. Iron on a low setting if needed.
Shedding of fibres noticed.
Some initial shedding is normal with recycled cotton. Subsequent washes on a gentle cycle should minimize this. You can also use a fabric shaver to remove loose fibres.
Uneven colour or distinct flecks are more prominent than expected.
This is a natural characteristic of the recycled cotton used, creating a unique look for each throw. If the variation is significant and undesirable, consider exchanging it for another piece, noting that all will have unique flecks.
